About the Book

The gender confidence gap has long been a hotly debated topic. But do women need to be more confident or do the outdated behaviours of some organisations need to change? This book discusses these issues and how, in today’s workplace culture, working hard and delivering well is no longer enough to get a woman who is interested in growing her career the success she dreams of. Instead she needs to demonstrate not just competency but also confidence, courage and credibility. To improve their chances of career success, women need to get comfortable with being visible in their organisation and industry. Sharing successes, stepping up to take new responsibilities and getting their voice heard. Jo Painter is a leading International Career, Leadership and Confidence Coach. She uses her research and coaching of thousands of women, to identify and examine what it takes to be successful in your career--without doubting your capabilities or worrying what others think. Jo spent 17 years in a corporate career before developing her coaching business 12 years ago. She works with individuals and organisations such as Amazon, Ford, Lloyds Banking Group, Women in Tech, Women in Banking and Finance, and Lean In. Have you had some career success but struggle with self-doubts? Are you frustrated with your career progress or want to have greater impact and credibility at work? If so, this is an essential guide for you.
